Regulating Agriculture

The fifth volume in the series brings together a set of essays reflecting on the complex political, social and institutional problems encountered by modern states in seeking to manage their agricultural sectors. Drawing on different national and international viewpoints, the essays present original analyses of agricultural regulation in a comparative context. The aspects covered include the roots of the post-war food order, the roles of corporatism, agribusiness and technological change, the challenge of deregulation and environmental reforms, the introduction of market principles and mechanisms into centrally planned economies and the efforts to forge a new order in international trade.Lowe, Philip is the author of 'Regulating Agriculture' with ISBN 9780471959328 and ISBN 0471959324.
